MSFS 2024 target FPS by setup
Practical targets in dense scenery (London, NYC) with PMDG / Fenix add-ons loaded. Bush flying away from photogrammetry is typically 30–50% higher.
| Setup | 1440p | 4K / Triple-1440p | PCVR (Pimax Crystal) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
RTX 5080 + 9800X3D | 60–80 | 40–55 | 60–72 Hz | |
RTX 5090 + 9950X3D | 80–110 | 55–75 | 72–90 Hz |
MSFS 2024 streams scenery on-demand — Gen5 NVMe makes a measurable difference to texture pop-in over Gen4. 64GB+ system RAM strongly recommended for heavy add-ons.
Why CREATE PCs for sim
Specified for streaming scenery
Gen5 NVMe primary, large secondary NVMe for installed sceneries — MSFS rewards fast storage as much as CPU.
Validated with PMDG / Fenix add-ons
We benchmark MSFS builds with the heaviest add-ons before dispatch, not just stock MSFS.
PCVR-ready by default
